I went and bought a fresh 5 out of a new drum. They tested it for me and said it was perfect, right in the middle. Why if when we fail it's always on the low side, but when the fuel is fresh it only starts out life in the middle?

Shouldn't it start out life at the top of the scale???
Doesn't seem to work that way. I had a jug of C11 checked at Mission last weekend from the bottom of a 2 year old drum, was told it was right in the middle. The fuel in my car was out of a fresh drum, apparently it was right in the middle too.
